AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Mix of raw natural minerals

Ruby Tanzanite

Ruby is the name given to the red variety of the mineral corundum. Because of small amounts of chromium, the red hue of these crystals ranges from deep violet to blood red. The gem is a very hard crystal, which makes it ideal for use as a precious stone. The name derives from the Latin "rubeus", meaning "red".

The "ruby lapis lazuli" is one of the rarest gems and therefore the most precious. Diamond, emerald, sapphire and ruby are known as the "Big Four" of the gemstone world. The ruby is undoubtedly the fiery and capricious diva of the quartet.

In ancient times, ruby was considered the mother of all precious stones. Hildegard of Bingen used its healing powers to treat pain and fever. It was believed that the stone’s color changes were a forewarning of plague.

At one time, ruby was the stone of rulers and nobles. It was said to give vitality to the wearer and allow them to enjoy life to the fullest.

The total weight is 26.84 g
